"This Parc-Ex Bangladeshi restaurant is pulling out all the stops for Iftar. The family-owned restaurant opened for Ramadan in 2018 and they’ve been waiting, like everyone, to enjoy breaking their fast as a community. Appayon is planning a buffet to meet the initial needs of hungry fasters, opening up the kitchen for other dishes after the rush. Special Bangladeshi offerings include the vegetarian snack piaju—deep-fried lentils with turmeric, onions, and ginger, and chana (black chickpeas and potatoes)—as well as beef halim and biryani also on the menu." - Ivy Lerner-Frank
